Venomblade Build

I just realized last night while organizing some stuff that I have a full mythic venomblade set and figured I should at least try to use it. I haven’t seen anyone really highlight a build using it.

I was thinking Witch Hunter, maybe something like this?

But it really seems like it might be too squishy or clunky. Has anyone had success with it or played around it in theory?

First of all, the reason why Venomblade builds aren’t so popular is because both weapons suck. That’s why when you see builds that use Venomblade parts, they only use the helm and the jacket which are both good.

In line with the things stated above, I would recommend changing both weapons into any acid dagger, really. I think 1 Basilisk claw should be there to cap Lethal Assault. Venomlash or a well-rolled Rift scourge slicer are also good.

One thing I noticed, your HP is too low for AoM content. I’d move some gear around for that. Keep in mind that this build will always be squishy no matter what you do but just have some enough to not get one shot (about 12k hp and 2400-2500 DA). This will surely steamroll pre-AoM content when optimized, but this will have a very hard time against Grava’thul and Kubacabra. Grava can just one-shot you from full HP, even if you up that DA to 2.5k and Kuba is just hard for melee in general.
